Cons:
* The majority of these characters are off the scale unlikable
* A lot of the plot twists were predictable
* It dragged on, and could have been a bit quicker paced
I would skip this and go read "Big Little Lies" instead because that had way more drama and intrigue, and the characters were actually fleshed beyond just being rich and deluded.
Pro:
* Alternating POVs between chapters
* The audio book did a great job differentiating between the different characters
Moderate: Infidelity, Toxic relationship, Murder, Toxic friendship, and Alcohol
